Java is a very popular sophisticated programming environment. Applications
written in the Java language are run inside a virtual machine (Java Virtual
Machine, JVM) which provides a nearly identical behavior on all platforms that
have a JVM implementation available. This "write once, run anywhere" approach
means that developers can support a multitude of platforms while only having to
maintain one code base. For users, availability of a current Java for OS/2 and
eComStation means access to a huge number of existing applications.

For more information about Java, see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_%28programming_language%29

Previously, Java had been made available for OS/2 and eComStation by IBM,
Golden Code and Innotek. However, new versions with many changes and
improvements have been released since then and current applications require a
current JVM implementation. The new project will port a current JVM to OS/2 and
eComStation.

For information about the project and its status, please see:
